hi guys! i just bought an 87 ford f150 8 with 302 engine. the head gasket is leaking a bit, how much do you think on average to pay for the mechanic to fix it in labor if i buy the gasket myself? thank you.
hi there, i just wanted to let you know that the head gasket is probably going to cost you around 20 to 30 dallars. the reason i know is because i work for an auto parts store and i always sell head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, you name it. Now a mechanic in my opinion will probably charge you about 80- 150 dollars. If you want an exact price let me know and when i go in to work i will look for it and then let you know what the exact price is. And if you really need it and also if we have it i could probably even buy it for you and sell it to you through ebay. let me know man im always on ebay after work thank you. oh and one finall thing if your interested leave me the information of the truck, I need the year , model , the engine size including liters like 5.7 and thats all the info i need. or you can give me a call at (909) 210-8492 thats my cell.
